AMENDING THE DUBLIN TRAFFIC CODE
DESIGNATING THE LOCKHART STREET/PALERMO WAY INTERSECTION
AS STOP-CONTROLLED ON ALL APPROACHES
WHEREAS, Lockhart Street is currently uncontrolled at the Fallon Sports Park driveway;
and
WHEREAS, Palermo Way is under construction and will intersect Lockhart Street
opposite the Fallon Sports Park driveway; and
WHEREAS, stop control already exists for the Fallon Sports Park driveway, and stop
control is planned for Palermo Way as part of the roadway construction, which will be accepted
by the City following completion; and
WHEREAS, Kolb Elementary School, located on Palermo Way west of Lockhart Street,
is scheduled to open in August 2011 for the 2011-2012 school year; and
WHEREAS, land development is not yet completed surrounding the school nor has the
school opened yet; therefore, a traffic study cannot be conducted to determine whether all-way
stop-control is warranted; and
WHEREAS, the need to facilitate pedestrians and bicyclists crossing Lockhart Street at
Palermo Way justifies the implementation of stop-control on Lockhart Street; and
WHEREAS, Section 6.04.070 of the Dublin Municipal Code states that City Council
approval is required for all stop signs which do not meet adopted warrants.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Dublin
hereby adopts the following regulation in the interest of public safety:
Section 1: The following language shall be added to Section 6.16.010 ("Stop
